  • Why clean your drain pipes? Once you think about everything that goes down them, you'll realize relatively quickly how easy it is for them to clog. Our professional drain cleaning service is an important part of regular maintenance, ensuring all built-up debris is removed so they can stay in tip-top shape. The clearer your drains are, the less likely they are to crack, leak, clog, and back up. If you've ever dealt with any of those issues before or have sought out toilet repair, then you know how troubling they can be.

  • Instead of worrying about the possibility of your home filling with toxic sludge from a backup, why not just call Mr. Rooter Plumbing for annual maintenance drain services? The answer is clear, but it’s common for homeowners to think that choosing DIY methods such as chemical drain cleaners and drain snakes are the solution—and they can be, to some degree at least. In reality, chemical drain cleaners do more harm to your drains than good, and they don't completely remove all kinds of blockages. Snakes are a smart solution for some types of clogged drains. However, they certainly can't reach where our advanced tools can, and they can't see down your pipes to detect the problem. We can.

Here’s exactly what you can expect from your certified plumber at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Ajax-Pickering during your drain cleaning service.

Video Inspection

Sometimes, it’s best to know what you’re dealing with before you begin. If we could all see into the depths of something, many of us would have avoided some potentially terrible situations. That’s the premise of our video camera inspection service. Often reserved to assess the quality and health of your pipes, we may use it at the start of your drain service to identify possible issues with your plumbing system—especially if you tell us you have experienced low water pressure or suspect you have a leaky pipe. Using a high-def camera on a long, flexible wire, we insert it down your drain and take a look around. Depending on what we see, we'll proceed with the next cleaning process step.

HydroScrub Drain Cleaning

Homeowners may already be aware that hydro jetting is most likely the next step we’ll take in the drain cleaning process. It involves the use of high-water-pressure equipment to shoot a high-pressure jet of water that will blast away all dirt, debris, and whatever else has accumulated in your drains. Households that flush baby wipes, feminine hygiene products, and cotton swabs often face some pretty frequent clogs, and if there’s one building up in your drains, we’ll clear it with this service. Our HydroScrub® Jetting is our vital equipment appropriate for most drains and will clear them of sludge, foreign objects, and built-up soap scum. In other words, not much can stand up to this method’s sheer force.

Enzymatic Drain Care®

Remember that chemical drain cleaner we talked about? Yeah, it’s no good for your drains. We'll never use chemical products to clean your pipes. Instead, we use Enzymatic Drain Care, an eco-friendly alternative using bio-based enzymes to buff away buildup in your pipes. After using our advanced equipment, these plant enzymes are pros at breaking down fat, protein, grease, and proteins, making them ideal for your shower and kitchen sink or bathroom sinks. The best part? No chemical smell or worries!

You now know how we deal with drain cleaning, but what exactly can you call us for? We take care of a wide range of issues, including the following:

  • Clogged Shower Drains: If you often see standing water in your bathtub that’s slow to drain, we can help clear the line of hair and soap scum to help your tub drain normally.
  • Clogged Kitchen Drains: Food and grease should never go down the drain, yet it so often does. That buildup causes a hard blockage that can clog your sink and cause extensive damage to your plumbing line or lasting water damage to your home.
  • Clogged Toilet: This is the most common one we face because, often, homeowners think their toilet is a wastebasket. Toilets are designed to flush biological waste and have a limit to what they can handle, and if you’re experiencing clogs or a toilet that won’t flush, you’ll need your system cleaned.
  • Clogged Sewer Drains: To prevent a serious blockage in your sewer lines that leads to sewer backup, you’ll need to have your sewer drains cleaned.

FAQs About Drain Cleaning for Ajax & Pickering Homeowners

  • As you can imagine, there are many different items you should never put down your drains. With that said, there are also a number of items and substances that you might have thought were ok, but they most certainly aren’t. To avoid having to cleanse your drains often and prevent larger plumbing issues, such as clogs, backups, or a burst pipe, you should never put the following down your drains:

    • Cooking grease down your sinks
    • Paint down your pipes
    • Food down the toilet
    • Baby wipes down the toilet
    • Sanitary items down your toilet
    • Chemical drain cleaners

    Your plumbing pipes are only so big, and clogs can happen very easily, especially with older plumbing systems. If you hear gurgling noises, see standing water in your sinks, or have a toilet that won’t flush, you may have a clog on your hands. Mr. Rooter Plumbing offers 24/7 emergency service for this very reason.
